I'M GOING TO BUILD A SNOWMAN By Jashar Awan Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, $18.95 (48p) ISBN13: 9781665938174 In this sparkling picture book celebration of winter and creativity, a boy's snow day efforts show that perfection is relative and what's important is taking pride in what you do! When a little boy wakes up to see a blanket of snow covering the world outside, there's only one thing to do: make a snowman, and not just any snowman—he wants the best snowman ever. But when his perfectly packed and powdery dreams clash with cold, slushy reality, he realizes the best snowman ever may be out of reach…but he can make his best snowman yet. "★ A simple but beautiful story about how little perfection matters." -Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review) "★ VERDICT Speaking of classics, why not bring in Ezra Jack Keats's The Snowy Day, too, and have a joyful story hour to remind kids that efforts, not results, count, and snow is a glorious break from everything." -School Library Journal (Starred Review) A 2024 American Library Association Notable Children's Book A 2024 Bank Street Best Book of the Year A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection Featured in Publishers Weekly's Holiday Gift Guide 2023: Children's & YA 2023 Honor Medal from Dad Suggests Picture Book Awards Ranked #1 Best Christmas Book of 2023 by Dad Suggests |
